Municipal courts; revise amount allowed to charge convicted misdemeanor offenders for jail costs.

HB 733 increases the maximum charge municipal courts in Mississippi can impose on convicted misdemeanor offenders for jail costs, raising the limit from $35.00 to $50.00 per conviction. This change directly affects municipal courts and individuals convicted of misdemeanors in Mississippi. The bill amends Section 21-23-7 of the Mississippi Code of 1972 to adjust this specific fee amount. It does not alter other provisions of the law or introduce new mechanisms. The change is a straightforward adjustment to existing court fee authority.
